want to hear a cute atlas story?
when i picked him up, sam told me that every night at the doggy ranch, atlas stands in front of his crate. sam has to bend down and give him a huge hug around the neck and look him in the eyes, and then atlas turns around and trots into his crate.
one night, sam gave him a hug but atlas didn't go into his crate afterward. sam was trying to figure out what it was, and then he realized that he forgot to look atlas in the eyes. apparently it doesn't count if there isn't eye contact.
isn't that the sweetest story? now, i am trying to remember to look him in the eyes every night when i thank him for being the best puppy in the world and for spending my day with me.






That is precious...*sigh*... Sweet Atlas! And as with humans, so too with animals/pets...eye contact makes all the difference. :o) ((HUGS))

Eye contact is important to dogs. They watch your eyes for clues about what you want and how you feel. When a dog looks at you, they look up into your eyes...unlike some men I know. :)
